'Boycotter' for a 9 to 10 Degree Score; 'with great Attitude' for a 6 to 10 in Attitude Score; 'with Power' for a 4 to 10 in Power Score.
The contrast between Alphabet's Google and Meta's Facebook is brought alive by our rating rules being imposed on both of their stories. Both companies look like they are doing a lot, but Alphabet comes out as the clear moral winner. Both companies quickly decided to cut advertising from Russian state media. Meta basically left it at that. Alphabet, however, had within five days announced it would cut all Russian advertising.
Rated on the basis of its deeper withdrawal, Alphabet got a lower Speed score including a Chicken Penalty (it was slower than Meta also for the initial move against Russian state-controlled media). However, we consider Alphabet's withdrawal Full & Complete with a 10 score for Degree, compared to Meta's score of just 2. Also, Alphabet was a Denouncer of Russia, having the gut to use the word "invasion" which the Russian government hates, compared to Meta's Mealy-Mouther statement. At the end of the day, Google isn't making money from Russian advertising and isn't helping the Russian economy as a result.
Alphabet has an extreme Power level, just as Meta had, because of both economic power by being able to disconnect a major advertising medium from Russian companies, but also because of the Ostracizing effect of being able to let tens of millions of Russians know that a Russian company is persona non grata, for which we gave both companies 10 in Power. However, doing the right thing was less expensive for Alphabet than Meta, which may explain why Meta has failed to do so. Alphabet's Russian revenues were 0.4% versus 1.8% for Meta. This de minimus Exposure of Alphabet put it in the enviable position of looking at a 1,000% Return on Sacrifice opportunity. Either this moral-commercial trade-off was irresistible to Alphabet, or it simply never contemplated its own small Sacrifice and just chose to do the right thing.

'Laggard' for a 0 to 5 Speed Score; 'Faint-hearted' for a 1 to 4 Degree Score.
Saint-Gobain has stopped exports and imports with Russia and Belarus. It said, "Local activities are now operating at a minimum and in autonomous mode to maintain the employment of employees and to mitigate the consequences of this war for them and their families, in accordance with our corporate social responsibility".
The company also stated that all "investment projects" had been canceled. In addition to showing "solidarity" with Ukraine, it said, "The group strongly condemns this war."
Saint-Gobain is a Confused Humanitarian, in this case on behalf of Russian employees and families, citing social responsibility in its company policies as the reason it would continue production in Russia. Social responsibility needs to extend to the impact you have on society at large and not just employees. The use of the words "as a minimum" to describe ongoing production is vague. It also threw in a Red Herring about not making future investments.
Continuing some level of production, regardless of the excuse, gets a low credit in Degree, which was brought up a bit for completely withdrawing from exports and imports. The company was also slow to do so little, following CRH and Holcim by nearly three weeks, for which it got a Chicken Penalty.
This too-little-too-late company at least condemned the war, which qualified it for Denouncer status, but the contrast between the poor action and strong words put it into the Big Talker category. We calculated its Exposure at only 1.3 which makes all of its efforts to explain itself even less understandable.

'Shameless' for continued involvement with Russia;'without having to make a sacrifice' for a 3 to below Exposure Score;'failing to use its Power' for a 4 to 10 in Power Score.
The company owns the popular WeChat messaging and network service with 1.2 billion users. In the past, it bought 10% of a Russian internet service digital business for $300 million.
According to Financial Times, "a joint letter denouncing Putin's invasion" signed by five academics was deleted after circulating on WeChat. Separately, WeChat said some users were "fabricating false information" about Ukraine and called on users to maintain "an objective and rational attitude".
The company was asked directly by Mykhailo Fedorov of the Ukrainian government to withdraw online games from Russia.
Tencent is about as immoral as you get among companies involved in Russia. In addition to not making an Announcement and not responding to pressure from Ukraine, the company has actively undermined the effort to expose the Russian government.
Worse than that, Tencent is what we call a Reverse Boycotter, a company that actively refuses to take sides or takes the boycott backwards. The Chinese company has become an extension of its government's censorship of information and opinion in Russia about the war. Traditionally, WeChat has been one of the principal censorship tools of the Chinese government but now Tencent has put WeChat at the service of a sister autocracy. It doesn't surprise us at all yet it's of no satisfaction to see one's worries come true.
The company technically has the Power to cause a lot of trouble for Russia, but it has already nailed its colors to the mast, and we don't think it is going to suffer from consumer pushback for its behavior: the company has been doing this for years in China and it's hard for consumers confused by propaganda to react when they are then censored.

JPMorgan said it would be "unwinding", "in compliance with directives by governments around the world" and had not been “pursuing any new business”. The bank added, “current activities are limited, including helping global clients address and close out pre-existing obligations; managing their Russian-related risk; acting as a custodian to our clients; and taking care of our employees.”
JPMorgan was later criticized by Senator Elizabeth Warren for continuing to trade Russian debt on the secondary market. She described JPMorgan’s actions, along with Goldman Sachs’, as “war profiteering”.
Reading what banks have done about Russia is like playing a game of ‘Spot the Difference’. JPMorgan said it would be “unwinding” its Russian business, Goldman Sachs said it would be “winding down”. These two parrots said almost the same thing on the same day. Then, three others followed the parrots like sheep out of Russia, half-heartedly: Citi gave the excuse of “new business or clients”, HSBC “new business or customers” and BNP “any new business”. Either they must think the same way or be using the same PR strategist. These excuses make them all Nibblers.
JPMorgan’s statement is too vague to get many points from us. When will this famous unwinding actually start or be completed? Moreover, doing the wrong thing to help others do the right thing sounds like a moral derivative rather than the financial derivative JPMorgan invented in 1994. We also wonder how much money there is to be made by “helping” others. This and the bank’s excuse for delay also being needed to take care of employees classifies it as what we politely call a Confused Humanitarian in our lexicon. Finally, if that is not enough to be embarrassed about, the bank continued to trade Russian debt through a loophole.
Banding together with peers is worse than misbehaving on its own. This adds to the contagion effect which is why we give Leader of the Pack bonuses to discourage sheeplike behavior. Besides, safety in numbers may seem like a clever strategy until you’re exposed as being in the doghouse, which is how we rate this bunch of banks. We are calling them all out for not getting out properly.
The investment banking pioneer should show some pioneering spirit, break ranks, and get credit for launching a Domino Effect on the rest of the flock. It’s a pity when a company known for being fast and courageous for its own profit is so slow and morally uncourageous when the profit isn’t there.

Has Meta behaved well? If we consider that it acted one day after the invasion, that it pulled state-run media company ads on Facebook, took down anti-Ukrainian activities on its platform, and that Russia retaliated by finding Meta guilty of extremist activity in a Moscow court, it looks like a perfect picture.
However, when we look deeper, we see a different picture. First, the Announcement didn't carry a leadership level denouncement of Russia, making Meta a Mealy-Mouther. But the real failing is that the company continues to offer a major online advertising platform to most companies in Russia. This is of value to the Russian economy or it wouldn't be using the platform. Meta is right that it has a moral duty to allow Russian people to use its media to avoid government censorship and propaganda by obtaining information and communicating with each other freely. But it doesn't need to run advertising at the same time. It could easily be an ad-free environment. That way, Meta could help democracy by undermining censorship and propaganda, while also undermining the economy.
Since Meta, unlike Alphabet's Google, is lining its pockets in this way, we have given it 2 points in Degree for its state-media advertising ban. It gets 10 out of 10 on Speed, by making its move a week before Alphabet and ten days before Amazon.
Since 1.8% of its revenues come from Russia, we gave it an Exposure level of 3.5. Its Power is extreme, from a combination of economic and psychological factors. Imagine the impact on tens of millions of Russians seeing empty ads on the platform in protest, or even better a statement saying that Meta refuses to make money from Russia at this time but continues service as a censorship-free medium for the public good.
It is disappointing and ironic that the company that has made money in the past from selling ads to Russian-controlled and Russian-sympathetic parties trying to influence voters in Western democracies – including for a US presidential election and the Brexit referendum – didn't have the morality to do something to help democracy when it had the chance.
